5 Potato Side Dishes So Good They’ll Steal The Show

Have I already seen all these recipes? Yes. Am I still going to watch this entire video? Absolutely.

"If ever there was a potato recipe built to burn you, it's this one"..... Chef John, you are a chef after my own heart; it's inspiring that a chef with your talent and experience understands the shortcomings of those of us for whom cooking is always a possible tragedy in the making!

The lowly potato, lumpy and crude, under John's hand becomes glorious food. It starts on the counter, homely and brown, and ends on my plate with a crispy gold crown.

Pretty sure I have never laughed while watching a food video 🤣Potato Dumplings: "What looks like bacon on the top...is not. That's the bad news". Then his honesty when the potato exploded, "I decided to watch a stick of butter melt to calm my nerves, that will relax you. Let's all watch it and see our troubles melt away" HILARIOUS!

Me: I don’t have enough time to cook. Also me: watches 40 minute video on potatoes. 🤤

OMG there should be a "potato only" restaurant! I would dine there often!

I made the fondant potatoes twice today!. Absolutely delicious and so simple. The texture is unbelievably creamy inside with a golden crispy top. This will be my new way of eating my spuds all the time!!! Ty, dude 😃

I absolutely love how funny he is and his lessons on cooking.

I (native German) would never ever make Kartoffelklöße without the roasted bread cubes in the middle. They are the best part of the dumpling! By adding them you make sure that the dumplings are fluffy which, in turn, makes them perfect for absorbing a lot of the flavorful sauce that is part of the dish you would serve them with. The ultimate purpose of the German Kartoffelkloß is to serve as an edible sponge for the sauce 🙂

So nice to have nice narration spoken at a perfect pace and no annoying hype instrumental music. THANK YOU!

"Add one more sprinkle of black pepper....probably for no good reason; but I did it any way!!!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Great recipes with hilarious commentary and instructions!!!! Love it!!!

Chef John, his recipes, tips, and humor make him such a treasure!

I made the lemon pepper roasted potatoes for company tonight. My husband watched me follow this recipe and he was amazed at how much my version looked identical to the chef’s version. Thank you , Chef! We tried one for lunch! OMG! Will serve with chili, a salad and lots of toppings.

My husband walked in while I was watching the one on Fondant Potatoes and he goes, "Oh, you make that." I didn't miss a beat and said, "I know! He stole my recipe!" He'll never figure out the inception.

I made Potatoes Romanoff today. I added Mexican cheese blend and mozzarella. I alao added melted butter to the recipe. Delicious! 😁

Regarding the lemon pepper potatoes I have two important pieces of information. 1. Easy with the cayenne pepper! If you over do that you will have worked long and hard and some of your guests won't be able to really enjoy them. I love spicy but my first try were too hot for me, so take it easy with that. The black pepper and kosher salt can and should be used with abundance. 2. Don't start these 1 or even 1.5 hours before dinner. The final bake takes a solid hour+. If you plan on sitting down at 7, start preparing at 4.30 at the latest!!!

The croutons in the middle help keep the dumplings from falling apart as they cook. All the potato eating countries make these and usually serve them with beautifully roasted pork. My Scots grannie made them 60 years ago Some receipts also have grated raw potato thoroughly dried and mixed in....We often had them for Hogmanay or Scots New Year...like this year!

Yum!!! I'm a potato fanatic, too, so 5 of your best potato recipes in one video is perfect! By the way, ever since I watched your German potato salad video a couple of months ago, my daughter and I have been making it regularly! It was life-changing for us!

"I was think'n about giving em the oooool tappa-tappa..." he has SUCH a fun and relatable wit! This is the first video of this creator I've seen and I'm subscribing, they're a wonderful pacing, beautiful filming, relevant commentary that is ALSO delightful! It's all goodness here. I look forward to seeing others.

I LOVE the way you narrate this. The inflection in your voice while doing this is terrific.
